Grilled miso tofu with spiced lentils

1. 1

   To make the lentils, heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, ginger and salt and fry until the onions have softened. Add the curry powder, cayenne pepper and lentils and mix well, then add 750ml/26fl oz water. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the lentils are tender, removing any scum off the top as it appears. This should take 30-40 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat the grill to its highest setting.

3. 3

   To make the miso-glazed tofu, mix the oil, vinegar, miso paste, garlic, soy and sugar together in a bowl. Dip the tofu slices in the glaze, turning well to coat. Arrange on a grilling tray and place under the heat, turning them to brown all sides. Dip the tofu back into the glaze and repeat the grilling once more.

4. 4

   To serve, divide the lentils between 3 or 4 bowls and top with the tofu. Sprinkle over some fresh coriander and serve with steamed basmati rice and lime wedges.
